Christmas Home Tour | 2014

Welcome! Come on in. Can I offer you a hot cocoa or a peppermint martini? I love that you’re here and am anxious to show you around. Excited to be part of my friend Chris’ Home Tour and loved the eye candy from Four Generations One Roof! We kept things very traditional this year. I used plaid last year and decided to use it all again this year. Our home lacks any red during the year so I love to infuse our spaces with a ton of it during this time. And let me preface this by saying my home is in no way picture perfect. We live, laugh and love in these spaces. Every single one of them. They may clean up well for photos but let me tell you, my home is just as Christmas chaotic as yours. Isn’t that what this time of year is about. I hope you enjoy our home.

I kept things simple in the kitchen. A couple of wreaths hung from plaid ribbon make a big impact. We also have that funky dust collecting space above our cabinets. We normally have it bare and Christmas forces us to take our little vacuum and give it a nice cleaning before we put up the pre lit garlands.

In case you are wondering about paint colors: Our downstairs is Cochise by Dunn Edwards and our master bedroom is Pale Oak by Benjamin Moore.

This is the first year we added some Christmas touches to our master bedroom. My favorite is the smell of the fresh wreath above the bed. I preciously had a mirror there and just took it down for the holidays. More of our room here.

And every good home tour needs a night time shot! This is actually when I enjoy my home the most at Christmas time. The fire, the tree lights. . . and my babies. Merry Christmas to you and your family. If you are new to my blog you canlearn more about me here and see some of my favorite Christmas projects right here!

And of course thank you to Chris from Just A Girl for hosting this tour of homes. My life is better because she is in it. Such a quality person through and through. Below are all of the tours featured this week. Enjoy your weekend, everyone.

I love every last bit, especially the little details like cranberries in the Nate dish and wrapping paper in that gold vase (finally a way to incorporate that thing! 😉 And we may be friends, but that still won't stop me from swiping those plaid pillows! xo

Courtney, I have not commented in a ling time, but have never missed a post , as you know. Your home exudes beauty and love. I wish you were here to decorate for us. Everything is just perfect!Love, Aunt Mary

Your home is just beautiful Courtney! I especially love the mirror above your mantel and the other in the foyer. Do you happen to know where you got them? Thank you for letting us peek inside your gorgeous home. Merry Christmas!

May I move in? I want to camp out right near your tree. Your home is exquisite and so so beautifully decorated for Christmas. The plaid, the red, the garland above your kitchen cabinets, the wrapping paper, your beautiful tree, your adorable son in his cute Christmas pjs, those yummy looking cupcakes and You in that lovely red blouse. I love it all. I will repeat what I've said before….You are a class act!

Courtney, I love your touches of Christmas throughout your beautiful home. I think I'll add a fresh wreath in my bedroom next Christmas! I especially loved your words about YOUR home being as chaotic as the rest of ours! Isn't that the truth! Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas! xox, Emily
